Several years ago I came across the work of Canadian photographer and "erotic self portraitist" Mikel Marton. His work is very queer, quite bonkers, erotic and often features young men who have the beauty that comes with youth but the bodies and "assets" of men.
One of those men is Vlad. As you can see he has a very strong visual appeal. As well as being a sometime model he is a professional circus performer. His body is definitely one of someone who knows how to use it and control it for acrobatic performances.
These shots are several years old now and I have no idea how old he is, but we are connected on Facebook through our mutual circus friends and today is his birthday which is what inspired my memories of these photos.
Happy birthday Vladimir.
